I think this is a good division of topics.
I wonder if it would be more interesting to cover the various
clustering stuff we have in 2.2 rather than the security stuff. I've
talked about security a couple of times before and it has a little bit
of documentation but I don't think anyone has ever pulled together all
the clustering stuff...
wadi jetty/tomcat/ejb
ejb client failover
farm management
how to set up a web load balancer.

Maybe we can create a mashup of the proposals to cover the following:
Session 1 - Geronimo 2.2 topics (current user community)
Administering Geronimo
Custom Server Assemblies
Securing Apps
Load balancing and high-availability
Would expect this session would contain more than we could cover in
50 minutes, but we should introduce each topic and include pointers
to the online docs that users could reference later for more details.
Session 2 - Blueprint Container Spec and Geronimo
Session 3 - Geronimo 3.0 and Java EE 6 (futures)
Geronimo 3.0 based on OSGi
Current milestone features
Present how much of Web Profile is available
JPA 2.0, EJB 3.1, Servlet 3.0, ...
How to start using 3.0 builds
OK. We're getting urged to finalize our agenda. In the spirit of
Donald's mashup. How does the following work for everyone?
************************************************************************************
Session 1: Apache Geronimo 2.2
Speakers: David Jencks and Vamsavardhana Reddy Chillakuru
This talk will provide an overview of the Geronimo 2.2 release.
Along with providing an overview of the new features found in 2.2,
the talk will also discuss Geronimo Custom Assemblies and
Application Security. Geronimo makes it easy to assemble a custom
server around your applications, including only those features
needed to run your apps. We'll see how to use maven to integrate
this into your build process. Also, Apache Geronimo enables storing
user credentials in a variety of data stores viz., simple text
files, a database, an LDAP server and digital certificates. In this
session we see how these data stores can be used to configure
application security and how the necessary infrastructure can be run
in Apache Geronimo itself.
************************************************************************************
Session 2: OSGi Blueprint Container Specification and Geronimo
Speaker: Jarek Gawor
This talk will provide a general overview of the Blueprint Container
Specification and demonstrate some of its core features using
Geronimo's Blueprint Container implementation. The talk will also
describe some more advanced features of the Geronimo implementation
such as Configuration Admin Service support and custom namespace
handlers. Future plans will be discussed as well as how the
Blueprint Container might be used and integrated within the existing
Geronimo Kernel.
************************************************************************************
Session 3: Apache Geronimo 3.0: OSGi and Java EE6
Speakers: David Jencks and Donald Woods
This talk will provide a preview of the new features in Apache
Geronimo 3.0. Including the OSGi support with the Geronimo kernel.
We'll also discuss the new Java EE 6 features: Web Profiles, JPA
2.0, Servlet 3.0, EJB 3.1, etc. We'll also include demonstration of
current functionality and discuss development outlook.
